MASTER CLASS “BICYCLE POSH POTS FOR A BOUQUET OF CANDY”

Pogorelova Valentina.

Look what beauty Valentina made! The master class is very detailed, we will learn!



.


Bike dimensions:
- height 18 cm
- length (from rear wheels to front wheel) 33 cm
- width (between rear wheels) 18 cm

To make a bicycle we will need:
- wire 2-3 mm
- white tape
- 4 white buttons
- “Moment” glue (or heat gun)

For this bike I used 1mm floral wire, 40cm long.


If possible, it is better to take 2-3 mm wire in coils.
I had to wind two or three wires together to achieve the desired thickness.


1. We start by making the front large wheel.
To do this, bend the wire in a circle.
(It’s better to do this on some kind of base in the form of a jar, so that the circle turns out smoother)
From a wire 40 cm long (this is the maximum length in my case) a wheel with a diameter of about 14 cm is obtained.


2. Wrap the circle with tape


3. Let's start making the two rear wheels.
To do this, we take a wire 25 cm long. The wheels are about 8 cm in diameter.
We do everything the same as for the front wheel.
(To make these circles even, I used a cream jar for the base)
As a result, we have 3 parts.

4. We make “spokes” for the wheels. True, we will have them in the form of curls.
For a large wheel you need 6 pieces of wire 14 cm long, for two small wheels - 6 pieces of 10 cm each.
We wrap these pieces with tape. And we bend




5. Let's start making the bicycle frame. It turns out to be “double”.
For frames we take 2 pieces of wire 40 cm each (for the frames themselves) and 2 pieces of wire 20 cm each (for curls on the frames)


6. We wrap these pieces with tape and bend the small parts in the same way as for the wheels.
We attach the curl to the 40-centimeter base, retreating 10 centimeters from the edge of the base.



7. The edge of the frame, from which we retreated 10 cm, is also twisted and we get such blanks for the frames.


8. Back to the wheels.
We make an axle for the rear wheels from wire 13 cm long. We wrap it with tape.

9.Prepare white buttons that will hide the mounting points for the wheels and axles from the outside.
To do this, we “comb” the legs of the buttons, making them as flat as possible.
(If possible, you can find white furniture “plugs” that cover fastenings on furniture)


10. We do a “fitting” and attach the curlicue spokes to the wheels

8.


11.We make a steering wheel from 40 cm wire




12. Connect the rear wheels to each other with an axle.
This is the most difficult moment in the whole process.
(I did this using “Moment” glue. To do this, I had to hold the parts for a long time while the glue “set.”
The glue from the heat gun just came off the parts when I touched it)



13. Then we attach the steering wheel to the front wheel.
To do this, we bend the wheel and secure the joint with glue.
Then we will “close” this place with buttons.

14. When the wheels are well dry, we begin attaching the frames and steering wheel to each other.


15. Slightly bend the frames and bend the free end of the frames so that they (the frames) can be put on the axle of the rear wheels.
Let's do a fitting



16. Carefully connect the frame to the axle with tape

17. We finish the bike itself by making “handles” at the steering wheel.
To do this, we wrap them with tape.

18. Let's start with the bicycle basket.
For the basket we will need two circles.
The bottom of the basket is about 8 cm in diameter. For this you need a wire 25 cm long.
The top of the basket is about 14 cm in diameter. For this you need a wire 40 cm long.
We do the same as with the wheels.


19. We make “twigs” for the basket by wrapping 4 pieces of wire 40 cm each with tape.
We twist them with tape in the middle together like this

20. We attach a circle of smaller diameter to the finished “spider” with tape.
First, it is better to do a “fitting” and mark with a pencil the places where the rods are attached to the circle.

21. Carefully bend the twigs, lifting them up.

22. Having done the “fitting”, we attach a circle of larger diameter to the twigs with heat tape.


24. To prevent the basket from looking “naked,” I suggest making curlicue decorations and attaching them between the twigs of the basket.
The length of the wire for such curls is 8 cm. In our case, such curls are needed 8 pieces.

23. At the top we bend the twigs in the form of curls.

.



25. Our basket-planter for a bicycle is ready


26. Attach the basket to the frames and axle of the bicycle using tape.




27. All that remains is to make a bouquet and “plant” it in a basket.
My bouquet is held on polystyrene foam and can be pulled out of the basket.
Thus, if the bouquet is eaten, the flowerpot-bicycle will serve as new bouquets

Nadezhda Ignatova (Voloshchuk)

Hello my dear friends, a long time ago I had to see on the Internet twine bicycle, a lot of time has passed since then, but the desire remains. Today is our holiday "Russia Day" on which I congratulate you all, which means that all our employees kindergarten day off, and I decided to do twine bicycle so that the day off is not wasted.

Now I will tell you how I did it. To make it we will be needed:leg-split, titanium glue or hot glue, cocktail tubes, cardboard, anything for decoration (coffee beans, beads, rhinestones, sequins) I used sequins (I store sequins and beads from under jars of gouache, it’s very convenient and nothing gets lost).

And so let's begin.

We cut out three blanks for wheels from hard cardboard. (you can circle a roll of tape, a mug, a glass) I have a rear wheel size of 8 cm, a front wheel of 10 cm. cm:


wrap all the blanks twine:


We make these blanks from 4 cocktail tubes (about 2 cm before and after the fold):


try it on:


wrap it around twine:


glue crosswise:


Glue the crosses into the blanks for the necklace With:


decorate the wheels (front on both sides, rear on one side):


take the tube, bend it and stretch it a little and insert a piece into it (in order for the tube to fit into the tube, you need to cut it a little and insert it with a drop of glue):


the blank is ready, we will need such blanks 2 :


wrap two blanks twine:


make a steering wheel, cut off 2 blanks (2 cm before the fold and 3 after):


connect them:


wrap it around twine:


another blank - a straight tube 11 long cm:


wrap the workpiece twine:


Let's start assembling. We insert a straight tube into the rear wheels and secure it with glue. We insert the blank into the front wheel and insert a piece of the tube between the upper tubes (1.5-2 cm) And paste it in:


wrap up the scrap twine:


We insert another blank into the front wheel (on the side, here So:


We place the front wheel with two glued blanks on the beam of the rear wheels and glue it:


glue the steering wheel:




put it on bicycle wrapped in twine and a flowerpot decorated with beads (for flowerpots you can use boxes of processed cheese, ice cream, sour cream, etc.):


decorate bike with flowers:


flowers for bicycle My 7 year old daughter made these - these are daffodils.

My daughter likes it. I already have 2 crafts from twine:


Thanks to everyone who watched to the end.

A bicycle with forget-me-nots for mom. Master class with step by step photos.

A DIY gift for your beloved mom.


Sinotenko Alina, 11 years old, student of the “Handicraft” association at the Lesnovsky Children's Art Center.
Supervisor: teacher additional education Novichkova Tamara Aleksandrovna MBU DO Lesnovsky House of Children's Creativity.
Job description: Various technologies were used in the making of the craft: beadwork, working with paper and waste material. The master class will be useful to everyone who wants to please loved ones with a handmade gift.
Purpose: gift, interior decoration.
Target: making a gift for mom from beads and paper.
Tasks:
- learn to make flowers from beads using a weaving pattern;
- learn to model a bicycle using paper and waste material;
- develop imagination, artistic taste, and the ability to beautifully present a gift;
- cultivate neatness, hard work, love of creativity, attention and care for loved ones.

Materials and tools:

Colored cardboard, thick cardboard;
- blue beads and yellow;
- wire for beads;
- floss threads green;
- stick, spools of wire for beads;
- scissors, pencil, ruler;
- stand (bucket) for flowers;
- Titan glue.

Step by step execution work.

But before we start making forget-me-nots from beads, I want to tell you a legend about these delicate, very cute flowers.

One day, the goddess of flowers, Flora, descended to earth and began to bestow names on flowers. She gave all the flowers a name and wanted to leave, but suddenly she heard a weak voice behind her: “Don’t forget me, Flora! Give me some name too!” Flora looked around - no one was visible. I wanted to leave again, but the voice repeated itself. And only then Flora noticed a small blue flower among the herbs. “Okay, be a forget-me-not,” said the goddess. Together with my name, I endow you with wonderful power. You will restore the memory of those people who begin to forget their loved ones or their homeland.

First stage. Forget-me-nots.

Let's get to work. Cut the wire 15cm long. We string 11 blue beads and close them into a ring.



We collect 11 beads again and make a second ring next to the first.


The forget-me-not will have five petals. Let's collect 11 beads three more times.
Each petal ring should be located close to each other.


Connect the flower petals and tightly twist the ends of the wire at the base of the corolla to secure them. Insert one large yellow bead into the middle. Forget-me-not is ready.


To make the flower stem stable, add a piece of thick wire and wrap it with green floss thread.


We make a lot of blue forget-me-nots to make a beautiful bouquet.
Forget-me-nots.
They are visible and invisible,
You can't count them!
And who just invented them -
Cheerful, blue?
Must have been torn off
A piece of the sky
We did a little magic
And they made a flower.
E. Serova


Second stage. Making a bicycle.

Let's make wheels for our bicycle. On colored cardboard we trace the wire spools, cut out four large circles and two small ones.



We cover the coils on both sides with colored cardboard.



We cut strips 1cm wide and glue the wheel blanks.



We make a hole in the wheels and insert a stick between the two wheels.



We wrap the stick with corrugated purple paper to match the wheels. We cut out a strip of hard cardboard 12cm long and also wrap it in paper.



Glue the strip to the bottom of the stick and connect it to the small wheel.


Let's cut out another small circle, a little larger than the bottom of the bucket and glue it to the bike. This will be a stand for a bucket of flowers.



Let's make a steering wheel. Cut two strips 1.5 cm wide, 10 cm long and a strip 13 cm long. Cover it with colored paper.



We connect the strips as in the photo. This will be the handlebar for the bicycle.


Glue the steering wheel to the small wheel. So our bicycle for transporting flowers is ready.




Add beads to the wheel and steering wheel. They will add completeness to the bicycle model.

Third stage. Setting colors.

For flowers we took a bucket with a candle. We really liked it both in shape and color. We made a hole in the wax and installed flowers. For color stability, we added a little plasticine on top.


Glue the bucket onto the stand. This is how tender and touching forget-me-nots look on a bicycle.



Before they had time to put the blue flowers in the bucket, the bees flocked to them!



Let's admire our small miracle from all sides.

Today's lesson is dedicated to this interesting topic like weaving from jute twine. You can make very interesting things from this material. This master class shows how to make a bicycle box.

We will need:

  • twine of 2 colors (light twine is made by soaking it in chlorine for a couple of hours);
  • glue gun;
  • coffee;
  • wire;
  • Titan glue;
  • dried tangerine skins.

I took my favorite ceiling tiles, I really like working with it, it doesn’t lead to glue, it’s easy to cut...
So we cut out 3 wheels.

And we begin to wrap it with twine and double-sided tape.

And then I make the windings of the wheel and secure them together in the center...

And I start wrapping the knitting needles...

Here they are, my wheels, ready!

Now we take the wire of the length you need and begin to wrap it with twine using Titan glue. We use an awl to make holes in the center of the wheels and insert a crossbar wrapped with twine.

Then we cut out a ring with the same diameter as the future box... and wrap it with twine.

Then we'll glue it here. The crossbar should be no less.

Now let’s make the frame of our bike...

I'll show you closer... It was made from 2 parts: the singing part is the steering wheel. We start with the left steering wheel, go around the wheel and cut the wire (I’ll show you why later) and deliver the right steering wheel. (I hope I explained it clearly). My husband glued it together with a soldering iron, but I think it’s possible with a hot gun.
And the second part: we make the letter “l” from the wire, squeezing it at the base and slightly bending the top and gluing it to the steering wheel, and bending the ends and gluing it to the rear crossbar.

Let's try on the box...

This is exactly the detail I described above... This is the steering wheel wrapped only at the bottom, near the wheel. We reach the middle, make a hole in the front wheel and thread a wire into the wheel... It will be clearer now.

This is what happened. Glue the ring for the box onto the crossbar.

Here's the first fitting. The bike is ready, all that remains is to make the seat, front fender and headlight.

I'll show you how I did it. We take a thick file, I took a transparent folder (it’s more convenient, the file starts to squirm). On a piece of paper we draw what we want to do: I have a seat and a wing. We coat Titan with glue and begin to lay it out with twine. I took a lighter one to set off the whole bike. We wait 1 minute, when the part has set a little, remove it from the folder and turn it over and give it the desired shape. We wait a little, the glue dries quickly. Then we cut off the unnecessary glue from the sides with scissors and glue it to the bicycle using a hot gun. I cut the wing into 2 parts, cut out a recess at the cut point, and attached it to the bicycle using a hot gun, then 2 parts. Well, the seat and the headlight. It’s easy to make the headlight, twist it into a circle and glue it to the file, when it’s dry I glue it to the bike, with a coffee bean in the center.

Yes, I also wrapped the handles around the steering wheel with light twine and glued coffee beans to the wheels... And decorated the box.

Here it is ready!

This is the hanger on the steering wheel.

Front view. The steering wheel was decorated with contour paints.

Rear view.

Casket.

Here is a box without a flower, you can see the narrow neck...

This is how it is removed...

And it stands on a wrapped ring, everything is stable!

Here's a closer look at the box...

This article contains several master classes on making a bicycle quickly and easily with your own hands from scrap materials with step-by-step photos and videos. This product will serve as an excellent element of home decor and will be the subject of surprise and admiration for all guests.

Making the “Flower Bicycle” composition with your own hands

To create this decorative composition we need:

  • A decorative bicycle, which you can purchase in a specialized store, or you can make it yourself, following master classes from the Internet;
  • Corrugated paper;
  • Foam;
  • Toothpicks, glue, glue gun, thread or wire for attaching flowers;
  • Decorative elements: tulle, bows, beads, ribbons, homemade beaded flowers, sisal;

First you need to make a small bouquet of flowers from corrugated paper. To do this, you need to cut out a rectangle measuring five by seven centimeters, fold it in half, round one edge and carefully stretch it.

Now you can start making the petals. You need to cut a strip of paper measuring ten by five centimeters and fold it in half twice. Then you need to cut out a petal of the same shape as shown in the photo below, and tuck it a little using an ordinary pen. Next, these petals need to be attached to the bud and secured with wire.
Flowers can be made of any shape and size, and when you have a sufficient number of them, you can start creating the composition itself. The bottom of the wicker bicycle basket needs to be filled with a piece of foam plastic and flowers made of paper and beads must be secured to it using toothpicks. You can also add green sisal and various elements in the form of decorative bugs and butterflies. Our flower beauty is ready!

Making a bicycle from cocktail straws quickly and easily

To make such a beauty you will need a little waste material and a few hours of free time.

Tools and materials to create this product:

  • Straws for cocktails;
  • Disposable plastic cup;
  • Scissors, toothpicks, cotton swabs, scotch;
  • Threads, bandage.

For greater clarity, this master class is presented in video photo instructions.

In this master class we will show you how to make an original flower pot with your own hands.

A flowerpot in the shape of a bicycle will be a very unusual decoration for your home or a gift for family and friends.
To create such a beauty with your own hands we will need:

  • Wire two to three millimeters wide;
  • White tape;
  • Four white buttons;
  • Moment glue or glue gun.

First you need to make three circles from the wire different sizes and wrap them with tape. Now you can add curls to them and secure them well.
The same curls should be used to decorate the entire bicycle.
The next step will be to create a basket for our bicycle. It is made using the same technology as the bicycle itself and is secured with glue.
All that remains is to make flowers from candies and decorate the product with them.

We create a very cute decorative bicycle with our own hands

To create such a miracle we will need:

  • Several cardboard blanks;
  • Small wooden stick;
  • A piece of thread, toothpick;
  • Scissors, glue.

First you need to make a cardboard basket. To do this, you need to glue cardboard strips to the bottom of the product, as shown in the photo below.

And then weave them into a basket.

Using the same method, only without weaving, you need to make three wheels.
Next you need to take a small wooden stick, two strips of cardboard and a thread and use them to make a fork for the future bicycle.

The parts that came out at the end need to be glued together.
The bicycle handlebar is made of cardboard and thread, and is also decorated with some decorative element.

This is what the output should look like:

Let's make a decorative flowerpot-bicycle from twine and aromatic coffee beans

For work we will need:

  • Cardboard;
  • Straws for cocktails;
  • Leg-split;
  • Coffee beans;
  • Polymer glue;
  • Scissors.

Using a compass, you need to draw circles on cardboard, as shown in the photo below, and cut them out using scissors.

Then these blanks must be wrapped with twine.
In the cocktail tube, you need to trim off the excess, leaving about two centimeters from the bend on both sides. You need four of these blanks to make one bicycle wheel. Next, each tube needs to be tightly wrapped with twine.
Now you can assemble the wheels, as shown in the photo below.

Then you need to take two tubes, stretch one, and cut off the other top part and connect them as in the photo below. Two such blanks need to be wrapped with twine.

The steering wheel must be created by cutting off the upper part of the tube, leaving two centimeters before the bend and three after it. Wrap them with twine.

The next blank for the steering wheel is an eleven-centimeter long tube wrapped with twine.

The wheel should be decorated with coffee beans. It is necessary to insert two blanks into the front wheel and secure them with polymer glue.
You need to insert a straight tube between the rear wheels and secure it with glue.
A piece of tube must be inserted between the upper ones. And wrap the place where they are attached with twine.
The role of a flowerpot here will be played by an empty jar. You can decorate according to your taste.

Video on the topic of the article

At the end of this article there is a selection of thematic videos on how to make a topiary with a bicycle, make a cute cradle for this type of transport, or design your own composition in the steampunk style.
